Jeep Safari Tours Package in Himalayan

Here is the Road trip that has it all. It encompasses the best of all the Indian Himalayas, Garhwal, Kinnaur, Lahul / Spiti and Ladakh. It offers a varied and enriching experience among the people dwelling in these places. The trip takes you from Mussoorie to Leh with prominent stops at Mori, Sangla and Kaza.

Spiti is the most isolated sub-district of Himachal, situated between the Himalayas and the Zanskar range.

Our first halt in this valley would be at the ancient village of Tabo. The gompa (monastery) here has the most exquisite specimens of Buddhist art.

The highlights of Leh include; Shey Gompa is about 15 km from Leh. It used to be the summer palace of the kings of Ladakh. Thiksey Gompa, close to Shey is about 17 km from Leh. The monastery is considered to be one of the most beautiful in Ladakh and belongs to the Gelukspa order and Hemis, about 45 km south of Leh it is one of the most famous and largest monastery in Ladakh. It belongs to the Drukpa order and was founded in the early 17'th century.
